The lunatic fringe aka, the right wingers, GOPĀ and am radio talking heads, haven’t lost their touch. The bigotry, hatred and whatever else they spew out of their mouths, is just plain sickening. What happened to civility, and true discourse that we should be practicing, instead of just screaming, lies being said and also fear mongering, that these people seemed to be so well versed in.
I cannot fathom why there is so much hatred in this country. In the 2008 election, Obama was the clear winner, and I was a firm believer in change for this nation, but it seems that the change we got, if you want to call it change, was having the Republicans stonewalling, and finding fault with our current president. It seems that it irks the hell out of them, because he wants to help the people, who need the help the most, such as the unemployed, families losing their homes to foreclosure, and or becoming homeless because they no longer can pay their rent.
Also, companies are not hiring, as the big corporations want to pad their profits, and with that, having their employees, do more work for the same pay, or having their wages cut, in order to keep their jobs. So what comes first, putting food on the table, clothing the children, or paying the rent. Its a tough call, as I have been there, and done that.
It would be great, if Palin, Gingrich, Beck etc., etc. would stop with their craziness and come to their senses, that the people in this country need help now, not tomorrow, or next month. Now is the time for this country to get its act together, because if it dosen’t, the hole will only get deeper, so deep, that we will never able to climb out of it.
